IntelliJ does not load JavaDoc

Question

Before you close this question as a duplicate: I am very well aware of answers like this.

However, the Quick Doc only provides the type information, like Class and so on.

This is because the jars we have no JavaDoc in them (When I Ctrl + B into them they don't have any JavaDoc).

With jars, I don't mean some internal ones, but rather Objects like String or List, which would provide a JavaDoc in Netbeans, but in IntelliJ that Doc is just missing.

Can you enable it somewhere that JavaDoc gets loaded with the jars?

Project Structure Settings → SDKs shows me that I use **jdk1.8.0_73**. Is there another place where I need to change it? @Ismail — MauriceNino, Jul 24 '19 at 12:46

Quick Documentation feature works using the sources attached to the JDK configuration like this:

Try to reinstall the JDK, remove it from IntelliJ IDEA and add it again. Double check src.zip is added in the Sourcepath.
